FAQ for tattoo inks

How/where should I store tattoo ink?
Store inks at room temperature, in a clean environment. Note that inks contain distilled water and therefore can freeze if stored in a too cold place. Be sure to avoid high temperatures as well, and protect inks from direct sunlight.

How do I know if the ink has expired?
The ink bottles have the expiration date on the label. In addition to the expiration date the label also has a symbol which tells you how long the product is safe to use after opening. It will look like this. The number indicates how many months the product can be used after opening. In case there is no symbol, use the product within 12 months from opening.

Allergy Patch Test Information:
1.) Using either soap and water or alcohol, clean a small area of skin on the inner surface of the forearm.
2.) Apply a small quantity of the Pigment/Ink, as prepared for use, to the area and allow it to dry.
3.) After 24 hours, gently wash the area with soap and water.
4.) If no irritation or inflammation is apparent, it may be assumed that no hypersensitivity to the pigment/Ink exists. The test however should be carried out before each application.

What is the RAPEX list?
RAPEX is the European rapid alert system for non-food dangerous products and it is based on the General Product Safety Directive (GPSD) (2001/95/EC). It allows for the exchange of information between the Commission, Member States and certain other countries included in the system of measures regarding products posing a serious risk to the health and safety of consumers.

The RAPEX system applies to consumer products such as toys, electrical appliances, motor vehicles and cosmetics. The system applies also to products for professional use and products posing environmental risk. The system does not apply to pharmaceuticals, medical devices or food, all of which are covered by other mechanisms.

The competent national surveillance authority of each Member State has the statutory obligation to use the RAPEX system to report any dangerous products found on the market and inform the system about measures taken to eliminate the risk. In Finland the notification obligation is enforced under the Act on Notifying the Commission of the European Communities of Measures Restricting the Placing on the Market, Sale and Use of Certain Products Presenting a Serious Risk (1197/2009), the "RAPEX Act".

Each Member State must have a national RAPEX Contact Point, which for example in Finland is Tukes.

What should I do if the ink I use shows up in RAPEX list?
First check the manufacturing lot from the ink bottle, is it the same as listed? From RAPEX list you can see the brand of the tattoo ink, product name, batch number and/or lot number. If your ink is not from the same manufacturing lot/batch, you do not have to do anything, withdrawal does not concern your ink. In case you have the same batch number and/or lot number, stop using the product and contact the supplier you bought the ink from. Your supplier will inform you how to proceed with customer return and product exchange.

How do we handle possible withdrawal?
We check the RAPEX list on a weekly basis. If we notice our product there, we immediately stop selling the product, and personally contact all customers who bought it. It is rather rare situation, that original ink would be withdrawn from market. We try to keep buffer in our stock, so in withdrawal situation the product most likely can be found there, and has not been sold forward.

How do I know my inks are original?
If you buy your inks from official distributors and well known suppliers in tattoo industry, your inks are 100% original. If you buy inks from eBay or some other not known suppliers in tattoo industry, you most likely buy copies of original inks. You can find copies available made of every major ink brand in tattoo industry. Many of RAPEX bans and withdrawals concern copies of original inks.

By using copy inks you take high risk for serious health issues to your customer. These inks can contain large amounts of dangerous ingredients. In some cases you can recognize the copy already by the label, but many of the pirated products are made to look original. Know your supplier, and buy the real stuff.

What Ink brands comply local legislation?
The inks bought from us can be used in most countries worldwide. If you hesitate, check your local legislation, or contact our customer service, and we try our best to help you with this issue as well. All our inks are 100% original and classified as safe to use.
